easily one of the worst movies of all time. Three hours? WTF? I'm not a quitter, that may be my biggest weakness.

Yea, I was kinda disappointed in Avatar 2 but the ride at Disney World is fabulous.
Never watched the first one. Got my fill of blue creatures fighting evil with the Smurfs.
Avatar is only good in the theaters. I love it at the theaters, hated it home.
The subtext of both Avatar movies as a way for Cameron to make political statements is the biggest disappointment.
If you’re talking about colonial era politics, I guess. It’s pretty much just Dances with Wolves, with aliens.
I fell asleep watching it at the theater. It was one of those with cozy recliners and beer, so mix in a bad movie and I was out. I almost made it the whole way, tho. Only missed about 45 minutes.****
This describes me. I watched about 20 minutes of it up until I realized that I really just didnt care about this story
I watched Avatar 2 since it was free to watch on the Disney app.
I got my money's worth.
Didn't hate it, but never felt involved or passionate about the outcome.

I like the first one the first time I saw it a little less every time I've seen it since. I have never seen Avatar 2. Oppenheimer surprise me because it is a deeper movie than it first appears to be.
Speaking of long movies. Watched Killers of The Flower Moon on Apple. Pretty good but it should have been a series or cut an hour off of it. It drags in the middle to me. Once Todd shows up then it felt rushed. DiCaprio is awesome and it weirdly has several musicians cast in key roles.
I know this isn’t the ideal board for Oscar discussions, but I usually try to get through all best pictures nominees every year. Have seen half so far, enjoyed The Holdovers a little more than oppenheimer and flower moon. American Fiction is still in theater, but worth seeing when it streams. Every year there a couple that I know are going to be almost impossible to get through (this year that is Maestro), but there are always a couple good ones I wouldn’t have watched otherwise.
I didn't make it past the first hour. Turned it off I got so bored.
I saw it at an MXT theatre in 3D and sat pretty close to the screen. So it was fully immersive where it felt like I was swimming with the fishes. That was cool.
I did not like the story because it was just the typical humans are bad. Cameron had seemed to forget that he is a human.

I came close to tapping out every 20 mikes or so, i just didn't think it could get worse, but it kept getting worse.
Yes it was. Denzel revenge killing people never gets old.
